My Hubby's Birthday card hehe (Dr. Digi's image)

Hi crafty friends,

Hehe, my husband is right crazy into a stupid X-Box game at the moment so whenever he's at home, he's sneaking into our games room and it's driving me up the wall haha!! I thought this image from Dr Digi's was perfect for him hehe, he found it amusing too! Hope you get a giggle out of it. The game is Call of Duty in case you're wondering, do you know any addicted gamers that aren't kids or am I the only one stuck with one at the moment lol?? Maybe I need to set up a "Gamers Anonymous" meeting for friends and family!

Out of this World card (DigiStamp Boutique image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I love this little monster from DigiStamp Boutique, imagine how many different colours you can colour him especially with his spots too!! I chose to go a black/grey colour but have the background like he is radioactive or something hehe. He can be used for Halloween or any boy cards, he could even look cute as a pink monster for a girl, I'd love to try that sometime!! I added some googly eyes I found at a $2 shop.

Purple Halloween witch (Spesch image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

Here's another Halloween card I created today using a gorgeous little witch from Spesch Designer Stamps. I have forgotten where I got the haunted house image from, I'm very sorry I can't give you details on where you can find it, I believe it may have been a free image online but can't be sure. 

I embossed the purple paper which is still very new to me. I bought heaps of embossing folders but rarely use them as they just haven't become one of my "go to" items yet. Hopefully they will as I always love seeing embossing on bloggers' cards.
